Explanation:

Proportional representation essentially means representation that is proportionate to some factor e.g. population here. The system of proportional representation aims at removing the defects of territorial representation. Under this system, all sections of the people get representation in proportion to their number. Even the smallest section of the population gets its due share of representation in the legislature.
